Copy the .all file to a USB storage device and insert the device into the TransPort router.
Issue the command “dir u:” to confirm the TransPort can access the USB device. To copy
the .all file onto the TransPort router, from the command line enter “copy u:mr4110.all t.all”
(replacing mr4110.all with the correct .all file name and the t.all destination name can be
anything). Please note that the source file (mr4110.all in this example) must adhere to the
8.3 filename convention (due to limits of the FAT file system) or the process will fail.
USB Security
In order to prevent unauthorised access to a TransPort unit using a USB storage device
(e.g. inserting a USB storage device with an autoexec.bat file designed to copy usernames
and passwords, etc.) the usbcon command can be used to define an access key. If the .bat
file does not contain the matching key, it will not be allowed to execute. The put parameter
of the uflash command is used to encode the key onto the file.
Note:
When using the uflash command, the filename should not be prefixed with u:, as the uflash
command can only act on files stored on a USB storage device.
For example, to create a key you would enter the command:
usbcon 0 flashkey
In order to encode this key onto a file called “autoexec.bat” on the USB storage device, you
would enter the command:
uflash autoexec.bat put
In order to remove a key from a file, you would use the clr parameter of the uflash
command, thus:
uflash autoexec.bat clr
Note:
You must be logged onto the unit with Super access level in order to use the uflash
command.
By default, an autoexec.bat file will be executed if found when a USB drive is inserted.
Other batch files can also be executed. This behaviour can be controlled if required by
issuing the command:
usbcon 0 batfile <off|on>
Disable/Enable the USB ports
If required, the external USB ports can be disabled to prevent any unauthorised copying of
files to or from the router and prevent unauthorised use of flash drives or serial devices
connected to the USB ports. This is also done with the usbcon command. The parameters
used with the usbcon command are dislist to disable or enalist to explicitly enable a list of
USB drivers. The driver list can be comma separated to specify more than one driver if
required.
The format of the disable command is:
usbcon 0 usb-x-p<.p>.<DRIVER>
Where x=1 for the bottom USB port and 2 for the top port.
Where p=<port #> (if connected to a USB hub the port numbers can increase).
